Masks

[CountValentine]

why didnt all the people who screamed at the non-maskers, when it was advised to wear masks, mind their own business?

Because they weren't following the rules?
Amazed how some feel rules don't apply to them.

[CountValentine]

And there are still places such as the local fedex which makes me wear one - cant ignore this madness

You call it madness when science doesn't.
So now you are against a business exacting their own rules? Are you against a bakery making a cake for a gay person?

Can you spell hypocrisy?

I can hear the argument that someone not wearing a mask can affect the other person. How does someone wearing a mask affect others?

[aygart]

Some people seem to be for everyone doing their own research and making their own decisions as long as it is the same decision as theirs.

I am against businesses that do not allow entry to black or Latino people, or people not wearing pants or saris.

because if it remains acceptable voluntarily - than you will continue having it mandated at places like fedex

I don't want to get into this argument but fwiw I recently heard about someone who is hard of hearing and needs to ask people to take off their masks so she can lip-read.

Ok but I didn't ask that.
I am against paying taxes.

Now there is a legit reason. If I didn't want to remove my mask, I would write down what I am saying so the person could read it. Common sense and curtesy go a long way.

Being holier than your beloved CDC is madness. the CDC does not recommend enforcing a mask mandate when I drop off a box at fedex

[TimT]

I am against paying taxes. 

Not at all comparable

So now you are using CDC guidelines to make your point when you are against CDC guidelines.

How do you spell hypocrisy?  4-y-o-u-r-i-n-f-o

Masks on a plane are no different than enforcing you wear your seatbelt or store items "fully" under the seat.

The difference is politics for these hypocrites.

One is a political decision and one isn’t.

[CountValentine]

One is a political decision and one isn’t.

FA are enforcing the rules for all three. There is no politics involved in their enforcement.

You have an issue with politics of a mask mandate then work to get it changed. In the meantime, don't blame the FA'a for enforcing the rules.

[CountValentine]

Just received an alter that masks are now optional for Amazon workers at their warehouses.

Should I go around trying to put a mask on everyone because I don't agree? Use some common sense.

[aygart]

Ahh so you want to impose your preferences on others?

[TimT]

House lifted the mask mandate ahead of the state-of-the-union.

Such a case is clearly an exception and not a rule.
